It has been known for some time now that the Western corporate media is saturated with copious amounts of manipulative propaganda. Much of this political propaganda comes from news outlets, movies, and television programming. And within these areas of media, we will find numerous instances of warped narratives on the subjects of politics, economics, medicine, and numerous other aspects of the establishment.

We have known for years now that the United States is regularly in the business of manipulating foreign governments. As we have learned from whistleblowers such as John Perkins, large American corporations commonly hire independent contractors to travel abroad, bribe foreign leaders and convince them to act solely upon Western, elitist interests. If these heads of state comply, they become wealthy. If they object, they are typically overthrown or killed.

Meanwhile, the Western media actively and deliberately misrepresents each ordeal which the U.S. is involved with. According to reports, it has often been that MSM will claim that a military crisis exists within the foreign nation and that U.S. military action is crucial for maintaining world order. In reality, however, the situation is typically much different.

According to whistleblowers, the military is typically used to intimidate foreign leaders into acquiescing to the bribes/demands of American corporations. If not, the U.S. military is ordered to overthrow the foreign government based upon false pretenses. There are, of course, other steps involved in this process.

One of these steps includes staging fake protests in the streets of the country of interest. These protests are usually funded by Western interests or foreign power brokers. The protests found to be funded by George Soros-backed organizations are actually a form of these protests, according to research. These uprisings are designed to create the illusion of social unrest within populations and to cause certain changes within government to the exclusive advantage of corporate interests, and to the complete detriment of the general (and many times, impoverished) public.

Julian Assange actually brought attention to this very issue just weeks before the posting of this article.

The most serious case of recent fake news is not on Trump's #FakeNewsAwards list. NBC substantially assisted the military coup in Turkey which killed hundreds. NBC falsely reported, citing a "senior U.S. military source", that Erdoğan had fled the country. https://t.co/cZCuyaCXc0

It is this Cabal and their corporate media machine which typically contributes the largest amount of fake news whenever, wherever, and to whatever advantage they see fit. It is this very media machine which we have to thank for serving up this recent helping of false narratives about the recent unrest at the Turkish capital. Here is Anadolu Agency with the story.

The Turkish embassy in the U.S. on Monday demanded an apology from a major U.S. news network for an “utterly unacceptable” and "false" report regarding a recent coup attempt in Turkey.

"[Kyle] Griffin's report that during the July 15 coup attempt Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan requested asylum in Germany was absolutely false, unacceptable and had no credible supporting evidence whatsoever," the embassy wrote in a letter to NBC News.

"We demand NBC News and Mr. Griffin to issue a formal apology for this unacceptable conduct."

The embassy said it is "outrageous" that such sensitive information about the well-being of the Turkish president was unprofessionally handled, and shared publicly without first checking first the validity and credibility of the source.

The letter comes after the New York-based producer for The Last Word show on the MSNBC network, tweeted during the overthrow attempt July 15 that he received a scoop form a U.S. military source. "Senior US military source tells NBC News that Erdogan, refused landing rights in Istanbul, is reported to be seeking asylum in Germany,” Griffin told his 5,700 followers on Twitter.

The letter describes Griffin's tweet as "highly irresponsible" and said it contributed to the already "high amount of misinformation" on social media.

Media outlets, including The Washington Post, used Griffin’s tweet in their reports as millions of residents heeded Erdogan's call to defeat the coup attempt by taking to the streets.

The tweet has since been deleted but neither has Griffin nor NBC News "thoroughly acknowledged its mistake nor issued an apology for that," according to the letter from the Turkish embassy.

Reporters at the independently-funded Newsbud online news outlet posted a YouTube video last week that demanded Griffin and NBC News officially apologize to Erdogan and the Turkish people by Monday.

Anadolu Agency was unable to contact Newsbud about the status of its request for an apology.

If an apology is not issued by that time, Newsbud has urged its reporters and others, activists and those in the Turkish diaspora plan to demonstrate at the headquarters on NBC News in New York to force an apology.
